Chapter 48 - Scanner

Even though the time ability of those Cavern Cats was not that strong, it was still better than nothing, right? He can always find stronger beasts which were strong in controlling time, then he could absorb the ability from them to strengthen the weak time ability.

With new found vigour, Lazy Wafula stormed to the midst of the Cavern Cats and because they were so many of them, the ability of time that they had unleashed together was becoming stronger and stronger. Even Lazy Wafula felt a little distorted.

_"Beep"

_"It is not the Cavern Cats themselves that are using the ability of time, but the vipers coming from their abdomen. I can see the rainbow weaves around them. They are trying to get time of this area to their control. Host should hurry to finish the Cavern Cats before they get time into their control fully. Even though their time ability is weak, they are many of these Cavern Cats and you should know that the larger the number the more the energy pool. If time of the area falls on their control, then host may be helpless in this situation."

"However, not all Cavern Cats are adept in the power of time. There are some of the Cavern Cats in their midst which had not yet grasped even a tad of this ability. Host should start taking care of those ones first..."

""Stop right there, you should know that I am not a machine like you. I can not see the Cavern Cats that are not adept in the ability of time in their midst. If you can identify them for me one by one, then I will happily appreciate." Lazy Wafula told Nakba after interjecting him.

_"Beep"

_"There is a low level target scanner with a 40% accuracy when the target's cultivation stage is lower than level three. But when the target is a higher level beast, the accuracy will plummet even further until it reaches 0% for those of too high level. There is also a higher level target scanner with 70% accuracy and even a 100% accuracy. There is also a scanner that will basically work on all mortal tier beasts with a 100% accuracy."

"What is the use of a target scanner?" Lazy Wafula asked with puzzlement.

"Sorry host, I got carried away in that I even forgot about divulging that information first - target scanner is what host will need to know the Cavern Cats that aren't adept with their time ability from those ones which are adept with the ability. "

_"The target scanner will be applied to the eyes of the host to enable host to perceive clearly his targets..."

"Just cut the crap, apply the higher level target scanner with a 100% accuracy on all mortal tier beasts, on my eyes!" Lazy Wafula ordered. He was almost reaching his first target and he wanted all his concentration on the fight. The quicker Nakba applied that target scanner on his eyes the better.

The system's shop window with several notifications appeared in from of Lazy Wafula's eyes by itself, when he asked Nakba to apply a scanner of the highest level on his eyes. Lazy Wafula can not help but grit his teeth in anger. It looked like the system wanted to manipulate him into killing even more beasts so that he can get a large pool of energy points to spent on the shop. 'What is even with this class D higher level scanner? A thousand energy points my a**? It is merely just a scanner for targets, it cannot even help me to kill the Cavern Cats. The target scanner is not a saber or a sword, alright?' Why even show him this? He only had thirty energy points in his account for heaven's sake, where will he get that many energy points to pay so that he can buy the target scanner?

Knowing his thoughts, Nakba chimed in,

_"Beep"

_"The system has allowed host to buy a class A low level scanner on credit. Host can then kill the Cavern Cats to pay up the debt. Make no mistake host, this privilege doesn't come very often. The host will also have to pay more than needed as..."
